The Material of Acrylic Plates
Acrylic plates are made using acrylic as the main raw material, and in the academic world, they are also known as processed organic glass. Made from polymerizing methyl methacrylate monomer (MMA), which results in polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) sheets of organic glass, they are widely used in the production of lightboxes. They have the characteristics of good light transmission, pure color, rich colors, beautiful smoothness, and more. Additionally, acrylic board sheets are lightweight and have strong plasticity, making them very suitable as building materials. Bathroom cabinets, bathtubs, and toilets made from acrylic board sheets not only have exquisite styles and are durable but are also healthy and environmentally friendly.
Types of Acrylic Plates
Acrylic plates come in various types based on their optical properties and applications. One common type is the milky white acrylic plate, known for its excellent light diffusion performance.
| Type | Features & Applications |
|---|
| Milky White Acrylic | Softens light, absorbs UV and blue wavelengths while minimally affecting red light. |
| Advertising Use | Common in lightboxes and displays to reduce glare and improve visual impact |
| Interior Decoration | Used in lamps, partitions, and panels for modern aesthetics and soft ambient lighting |
Characteristics of Acrylic Plates
Good weather and acid-base resistance, they will not yellow or hydrolize due to years of exposure to sun and rain.
Long lifespan, compared to other material products, acrylic board sheets have a lifespan more than three years longer.
Excellent light transmission, reaching more than 92%, thus requiring less lighting intensity and saving energy.
High impact resistance, sixteen times stronger than ordinary glass, suitable for installation in areas that particularly require safety.
Excellent insulation properties, suitable for various electrical equipment.
Acrylic board sheets are lightweight, half the weight of ordinary glass, reducing the load on buildings and supports.
Acrylic board sheets have bright colors and high brightness, unmatched by other materials.
Acrylic board sheets have strong plasticity, great shape variability, and are easy to process and form.
Acrylic board sheets are highly recyclable and recognized by increasing environmental awareness.
Easy to maintain, effortless to clean, rainwater can naturally clean them, or they can be wiped with soap and a soft cloth.
Applications of Acrylic Plates
Building applications: shop windows, soundproofing doors and windows, skylights, telephone booths, etc.
Advertising applications: lightboxes, signs, signboards, display stands, etc.
Transportation applications: train and car windows, etc.
Medical applications: incubators, various surgical medical instruments, civil uses: bathroom facilities, crafts, cosmetics stands, aquariums, etc.
